The beautiful Diane Kruger and Walking Dead actor Norman Reedus welcomed their first child recently, Us Weekly confirmed. In Touch has the exclusive inside scoop on the days leading up to her delivery, and it sounds like the couple is closer than ever as parents to baby No. 1.

Just three weeks ago, a fan working at a restaurant in Newman, GA, near where Norman films TWD, enjoyed a quick chat with Diane, 42. “I saw Diane at Chicken Salad Chick in Newman, Georgia on October 11,” said the eyewitness. “She was approachable and down to earth. She told me I was very nice. I could tell she was pregnant, but she did not look very pregnant at the time. I mean you could tell she was pregnant, but not so pregnant that she was going to have it that day.”

The fan was not sure how long Diane was in Georgia, but said, “I thought she must have been in town to see her [boyfriend] who films not far from there.” An insider said that Diane really didn’t want to leave Norman’s side toward the end of her pregnancy. Many details of Diane’s delivery are still being kept a secret, including the baby’s gender and where Diane gave birth. As recently as Nov. 1, Norman was posting photos in Georgia on his Instagram, but the couple also recently moved into a beautiful townhouse in West Village, NY.

Though Norman and Diane never officially confirmed their pregnancy, the purchase of the $11.8 million townhouse seemed to confirm that they were planning for a baby. Daily Mail reports that the Manhattan home has a whopping five bedrooms, four stories, 3800 square feet, and is a historical building built in the 1800s. Sounds like a pretty amazing home to start a family in! We wish the couple the best in this exciting time.
